CAROL BUI BAND

WEBSITE http://www.myspace.com/carolbui

LOCATION Washington, DC

SOUND "Her fierce guitar, matched by cellist Jenny Petrow, creates soaring melodic hard rock with engrossing sincerity-- as Bob Mould has proven, you can't b.s. a cello. Credit Aloha's T. J. Lipple for the drum work and the stellar production, which translates her intensity to record without losing its beauty or nuance. In the tradition of her hometown of Washington, D.C., she's made a punk-bred record where the guitar is loud but the tunes prevail.”

MAGNETIC NORTH

WEBSITE http://www.myspace.com/magnetichiphop

LOCATION New York City, NY

SOUND Comprised of close friends that share an unhealthy lust for music, Magnetic North is a hip hop duo that strives to find the balance between insightful lyrics and engaging instrumentals. Though they formed in 2003, both Direct and Theresa Vu have been emceeing for over 7 years. Direct, the mastermind behind their instrumentals, favors melodies heavy in acoustic guitar, piano riffs, and a variety of strings. He tops off his production with honest rhymes and a refreshingly crisp delivery. Then there is T, who brings to Magnetic North that final touch - a female emcee as comfortable on the mic as any of her male contemporaries.

NAM NINJA

WEBSITE http://www.myspace.com/nam

LOCATION Orange County, CA

SOUND "His music is a ferocious balance between love and hate. When he plays, he is driven by madness and passion... call it a possession of the body by a spirit, the union of his soul with a higher power, or the feeling that love is never lost, but always remains. But whatever it is that drives him, it makes him not care about his own life, which some might view as dangerous."
